Dear colleagues,
After four previous successful editions of the East Meets West Congress, which has benefited from high national and international appreciation, we look forward to the East Meets West 2021 Congress, the fifth such prestigious event organized for Central and Eastern Europe, fully endorsed by the ISEVS – the International Society for EndoVascular. In addition, University “Titu Maiorescu”from Bucharest, Romanian Society of Endovascular Surgery, Romanian Society Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery and Romanian Society of Vascular Surgery have come on bord as academic and scientific partners.
EMW2021 will be held in Bucharest between the 7th-9th of Octomber 2021 at Intercontinental Bucharest Hotel, a place of tradition for Romania. We invite you to take part at this special event, the only one that brings together so many international and national personalities in the field of cardiovascular medicine and surgery. Due to the COVID 19 pandemic, this year we will meet in a hybrid format, with both online and onsite presentations.
Why should you attend the EMW2021 Congress? Because the idea of the event itself started from the desire to create a new type of framework for Romanian endovascular specialists, a framework that puts the Romanian specialists next to the world leaders in the field. They will share their knowledge and opinions, as well as professional secrets. Our partners will present innovative techniques and technologies – the vast majority being important companies in America and Europe. Certainly, all the presented information at the event will help you treat your patients successfully. EMW2021 will also encourage the creative exchange of ideas and learning experiences for everyone! Registered participants will have the opportunity to relate directly to faculty members. Also, exhibitors in the medical industry will present new insights into the field and talk about new technologies.
We also promise you that the East Meets West 2021 Congress will be a unique event for us, for Romania, thanks to distinguished personalities who will honour us with their presence – faculty members from the International Society for EndoVascular Specialists from who have agreed to be with us and to support us in our common approach – excellence in treating cardiovascular disease. We all face daily challenges and difficult situations in our professional life. EMW2021 aims to come to the aid of those who are eager to learn, who are aiming for an international successful career.
The 3-day educational program includes plenary sessions, case reports, workshops, specially presented for vascular and cardiovascular surgeons, interventional cardiologists, interventional radiologists and other related specialties.
The East Meets West Congress wants to inspire, motivate and give a new contour to cardiovascular medicine and surgery because it’s really possible today.
It is simple. Knowledge has no borders and the opportunity to meet us in an open, neutral environment, regardless of nationality and professional level, should not be missed! If you want to write history together with us, we are waiting for you at the East Meets West Congress!
